Hi Everyone

I received a "Malware Alarm" a couple of days ago while using Safari on my 1.42 GHz eMac with 80 GB hard drive and 1 GB RAM running OSX Tiger 10.4.10

Files that I downloaded in respect to the alarm were both .exe and unavailable to me so it may have been some kind of fishing expedition to sell Malware.

Although I haven't done so before, I now feel I should install an anti-virus program. I had planned to buy McAfee Virus Scan for Mac 8.6 Is there other software that members consider better ? I used to have Virex on my old computer.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Regards
John
